Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons curry powder, preferably Madras
4 scallions, trimmed and minced
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (3 pounds)

Steps:

  • Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat source. In a small bowl, combine ginger, lime juice, curry powder, scallions, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet; season both sides with salt and pepper. Gently loosen skin from each piece with your fingertips. Dividing evenly, rub ginger mixture under skin.
  • Turn thighs skin side down on baking sheet, and broil 5 minutes. Flip thighs, and continue to broil until skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of thighs (avoiding bone) registers 165°F, 6 to 8 minutes more. Serve, drizzled with pan juices.
